Dia Mirza
Dia Mirza who is also the UN Environment Goodwill Ambassador had expressed concern over a pressing issue-the use of plastics and its impact on the environment. She took to social media and had shared a picture of plastic litter. She wrote: All those contesting Maharashtra Government’s ban on #singleuseplastics I want to ask you, WHY? How can you NOT see the damage it’s doing? Shouldn’t you be responsible for the waste you generate? We are drowning in plastics. Our health, water, soil, seas, nothing is spared.
